They are social animals that form packs and prey on most animals in the North today, including large caribou and moose. Fossils from Yukon indicate that they were also common on the Mammoth Steppe.In fact, grey wolves are the most commonly found carnivore fossils in Beringia.YUKON HORSE
Yukon Horse. Horses were one of the most abundant mammals that roamed the cold, treeless steppe of ice age Yukon. Unlike the steppe bison, which was a relative newcomer to North America, horses and their ancestors have been on this continent for a long time.In fact horses, like the wild ones that we now know best from Africa and Eurasia, originally appeared and evolved in North America.STEPPE BISON
This picture changed around 160,000 years ago when steppe bison first crossed Beringia and soon became the most abundant large herbivore in North America. From Beringia, they spread as far south as Mexico. A broken piece of fossil foot bone (metacarpal) found in a high bluff along the Porcupine River near Old Crow in 2006 is the most ancient JEFFERSON'S GROUND SLOTH A fully grown Jefferson's ground sloth was about the size of an ox, at up to three metres long. Although the appearance of these giant ground sloths might seem menacing, they were herbivores. They may have used their long sharp claws in defense, but these claws were probably better suited to grasping for food in tall tree branches. GIANT SHORT-FACED BEAR Giant Short-faced Bear. Ice age short-faced bears were the largest mammalian land carnivore to ever live in North America. These bears were nearly 1.5 metres high when walking normally, but stood about 3.4 metres tall when on their hind legs. They could have had a vertical reach of more than 4.3 metres.

Several lines of evidence have helped scientists reach thisconclusion.
YUKON | YUKON BERINGIA INTERPRETIVE CENTRE found at Hunker Creek, Yukon in 2008. Preserved DNA extracted from fossils found in Yukon, Canada has enabled Dr. Peter Heintzman of the University of California, Santa Cruz to reconstruct the family tree for the last known camel species to live in North America—the ice age western camel, Camelops hesternus.PALEONTOLOGY
Fossils from Alaska and Yukon tell scientists that western camels made their way north during a relatively warm part of the last ice age around 100,000 years ago. When they arrived in the arctic, however, the Bering Land Bridge was flooded and kept them from migrating to Asia like their cousins did. GREY WOLF | YUKON BERINGIA INTERPRETIVE CENTRE Grey Wolf. Grey wolves are probably the most iconic carnivores in the present-day boreal forest and Arctic tundra. They are social animals that form packs and prey on most animals in the North today, including large caribou and moose. Fossils from Yukon indicate that they were also common on the Mammoth Steppe.In fact, grey wolves are the most commonly found carnivore fossils in Beringia. Skip to main contentMenu
